Girl you got it right

Structured mens wear with colours of fall.

It just feels O so good.

Gorgeousss

She has a way of creating her collections based upon hat we've seen in the past "recents".

yes, i realize that was an oxymoron thanks.

think about this for a second. cropped tops from 80's trend . mens wear. asian inspired (previous Dior Collection); Cut and print. Latest cruisewear.

This is why why we love her so much .

The collection reminds me of a sophisticated doll.

Barbie gone Bad.

So good.

Brilliance in 60'000 pictures.

how about that precipitation

Dear world
one thing that is strangely under rated ..is......... photography.
its soo beautiful.
have you ever walked past something and just thought shit, i would love to freeze this moment.
no ? really?
trust me it happens, especially the first snowfall of winter when all the trees seem to be perfectly covered with snow. as if it's just sleeping.
well anyways i was flipping through a magazine today and all of a sudden i thought to myself, wow i used to hate all these ads.
no joke there is at least 30 pages of ads at the start of a magazine. 30 PAGES!
thats a great deal of tree pulp.
surprised by my acceptance of these pages i thought to myself how much i love them. its the whole idea, looking for tings we like.
pictures are what make up the magazine.
i love flipping through and looking at the colours and textures and shapes and and and well .... well i love all of it.
I feel that you only can appreciate fashion when you can enjoy the ads.

strange concept i know... get over it.

yuuuurp.

alright best outfit yet
heels, sweat pant styled gauchos, loose tank and lots of neckalaces
just saying......

edu.org meets washing machine

I’m being brain washed. Yes brainwasheddddddd!
listen to this its tragic like very tragique. Sad. Okay so as I was frolicking through an intellectuals dream with a sign stating leave emptiness at the door. And I picked up a few to many magazines. Cost me about 40 $. I have a problem and addiction.

If you must know the magazines were: POP, Vogue (usa), ELLE Canada, Fashion magazine and NYLON.

And Ias I was sitting in a floral bush this lovely evening and as I opened the first page with the scent of freshly printed ink I was bored with some of them.

I almost cried.

Here’s why:

Everyday I go to school. They teach me things they think I need to know right. WRONG!

I don’t care what you’re teaching me.

I know what I want to do and be so stop teaching me things that are stripping me of my creativity and causing me to become so busy I don’t have n opportunity to enjoi and savor what really truly honestly applies to my life.

I am unique, but if you keep stuffing me with this generic bullshit I will become a drone.

So in nice and in real quick form.

Dear education system fuck off you only help sometimes : )

Good night <3

P.s I also spent another 30 $on Kelly Cutrone’s Book. It’s good, take my advice and go buy it.

Morning sunshineeeee

So i love this video .

i love how she looks slightly distressed and how she looks like she's in it purely for the party.

makes my life ahah.

She loves making music but she loves what it can bring her just as much.

and like i fully love that she's willing to stand for the party cause ex Miley cyrus gets bashed all the time whenever she does something a normal teenager would do and Ke$ha said Fuck it and decided to do whatever the hell she wanted. SALUT to her !

It's not over ... its..

history... his story. her story . OUR story.

sitting down determined to draw. it's not easy right. usually what people decide to do is to find inspiration. this can be from a TV show a celebrity music, whatever gets your creative juices flowing .

but the majority of us .. i think , use history to influence what we draw. we choose a moment in time that we think will become important (for whatever reason ) to the world.

sometimes its not just that "time" that was important but more specifically its elemets of that fashion that makes it unique .

ex. elizabethan ages .... jewellery . carefully decorated and woven gold thread. delicate and intricate things. time.

so if almost every age in time has something they are famous for what will we be ??

ya i said it what will we be known for ?

we wear clothing because we have to not because we want to or should love to. its become a chore not a hobby. not something that should be done with time and thought. it should be something we look forward to.

Remember when Marie Antoinette gets dressed and everyone is watching her . Eyes transfixed on what she chooses to do because she's brilliant. well what happened to that.

Did we all forget what it feels like for someone to compliment us or did we just stop caring.

caring . lazy. lazy.

money is something we have and want not something we need . its not a necessity its a priviledge. expressing ourselves through the art of clothing is beautiful and frankly its taken for granted far too often. so next time you leave look at the time the mirror and yourself.

the time it took you.

when looking in the mirror we sometimes get lost .

but if you really see yourself and how you feel you will understand the art of dressing.

the act itself is magic.

Applying layers of clothing removes layers of insecurities and adds layers of beauty .

.inside and out.

Chapped lipssss. . .

Ladies and gentlemen welcome to the new era . the era where fashion is about imagination and preferences.

alright soo ... Today on glorious february 8th it was Value Villages 50 % off sale.

I know what your thinking . YESSSS!!!

it was glorious

walking into the store/ not really a store more like a building filled with other peoples treasures. nonetheless when i walked in the stench of sweet mothballs met me at the automatic doors. it was like god meeting me at the pearly gates. destiny.

so as i walked in i felt defeated , knowing that its extremely difficult to find anything i decided i had to just go for it!

so i did and well i found great things. i found a faded baby blue leather jacket with four clasps , shoulder pads and a huge collar. its glorious. never in my life have i been so lucky.

i also found a Gap pea coat, i'm not sure how i feel about these coats however i feel as if i should have one because they look preppy and clean and well one never knows when this loo may be needed.

i also got a lace vest a wool laderhossen styled vest. and a large sweater and a few other random shirts that i could not begrudge myself (well shirts i would not let my mother begrudge me of ) .........Sweet.

i cant even wait to wear my findings. however I do not yet fel ready to wear the shoulder pads in the jacket so i think i might remove them for the sake of my femininity.

so we'll see but i promise pictures are on their way ..

ps. Toronto get ready : )

k i have an obsession with boy meets girl.

boyishh things with girly twists.

and also making them super indie and hip.

so here is what i intend to be wearing come the new school yearr.

...

Post Secret by Frank Warren.

sometimes when i cry i feel like im having an epiphany. its like a surge of unwinding emotion. i feel like if i could channel that emotion for the rest of my life i could do and be what i want. sounds weird i know but its such an out of body experience that it makes us feel invincible.

something i think we would all love to feel like once in awhile.

This is only being brought up because i cried tonight.

i cried and cried and cried . and after i thought i was done crying i cried some more.

I'll be completely honest with myself and the world for one second.

I'm so scared. like absolutely terrified .

i have no idea who i am or what i'm doing with my life.

i want things to work out so badly that i feel like if my "shot " ever came i wouldn't recognize it because i would be so concerned with controlling the situation.

Aren't we always taught to do that .

Control our lives.

Steer.

i like steering but i also like that feeling of complete and comfortable fly by the seat of your pants insecurity.

an insecurity that guides us to our most raw emotions.

emotions that when they run through us we cant even contain them.

Priceless emotion.

A word my art teacher would use: Organic.

books and clothes

So .i . . . . . . was originally going to write about these books that i just cant help but want to write about however i think ill save that for tomorrow.

ok so instead I'm going to write about something very familiar to all of us- clothing.

Ah yes clothing . Do not get confused i will not teach you how to dress yourself.. however if you need help feel free to ever ask questions about outfit ideas etc..

Alright so today i was sitting in front of my closet and i literally had no inspiration whatsoever to get dressed. it was literally the most depressing thing i have ever experienced in my entire life.

so i have these pants that i love they look like skinny pant dress pants, but they aren't. they are like really thick leggings that look sophisticated and have pockets and a zipper and everything , and like well i definitely wore them tuesday and wednesday and well today was thursday and i kind of hesitated to wear them a little, but i said fuck it and wore them anyways cause well they look good and make me feel good.

if it looks good do it!

i know this seems like a random post but i was just thinking that cause well i felt awkward wearing the same thing more than 1 day in a row. k thanks

Changing...?

Alright so i realized a few weird things today... i'm changing. ya sounds weird right but wait.

i usually do things a certain way , i always buy certain things, i always paint my nails the same colour, just to name a few, however lately byt the powers of the universe i've stopped.

HALLELUJAH!

okay its simple things like splurging when usually i would save or painting my nails a different colour or just parting my hair differently but it actually makes a huge difference ! It opened up a door that i never knew i had the key to but if i did i probably would have been to scared to open anyways. Okay . so i opened the door and well it was a pretty glorious thing. it made me feel like i was doing something right. which i don't think a lot of us usually feel. Anyways i felt it and i loved that feeling , and it totally gave me the kick-in-the-butt-boost i needed.

I think i'm going to keep taking little risks and doing things differently like i have been cause it's been making me feel soo goood lately .

Ex: i usually part my hair to the side ( it's easier to hide behind )

but today after i took my hair down from it being wet due to a shower it fell into a centre part. I've tried a centre part before and well i thought my forehead looked big, but today it looked more like a Jillian Zinser 90210 kind of hair style. i know it seems silly but well it felt great and well it also means that i can't behind my hair anymore. will i keep it up ? we'll see .

so to those reading .. go do something that your scared of doing cause it feels so great, and if it doesn't work out the first time just remember there's more than one road to each destination ....

Predictions.......

Alright so today i had a premonition.. well i do realize its not my job to `premonate things however it is my duty to report.

So today as i was sitting in an intellectuals dream i looked up only to spot a friend of mine,Pixie. Similar to Nima, Pixie also has special influences upon me.

HOWEVER they are extremely diferent.

Pixie influences and nima encourages. not to say either of them dont have any other influences but those are the ones i that primarily stand out.

It sounds very weird but i see myself in both of them. when i relate myself to nima i see my subconcience and my artsy and quirky side reveal itslef. kind of like a window to my youth, but one of those big windows that people snek out of, none of those little windows that are painted shut and don't open.

and Pixie well let me explain it this way its like i'm an url on the website and im at the homepage, and she's a refresh button. so everything i like is done through her and through me.

Well now that you have a little backround information let me get to where i was going , because i think i've arrived. so as i looked up to pixie and she used her magic refresh tool upon me , something came to mind.

Fabrics.

Fabrics are going to be huge these coming seasons, textures and patterns are going to be what fuels designs. these elements are going to have such an influence that it will be the electricity of the collection. Fabrics that you want to wrap yourself in because they make you think of cool nights on the beach wrapped in heavy chenille throws and those nicely knotted ones with big holes that kind of look like ponchos but aren't.

Reminds me of the Coco Chanel documentary/movie when

she opens up her new shop near the beach. She's seen wearing Andro clothes with an occasional wrap .

No to mention SS10 the key theme has been Androgynous ( Mizrahi ) vs. Soft and flowy ( Ricci & Valentino ) No to mention how great they are together.

Gucci ssRTW 09

Gorgeous

:Cant help it but want my SS10 to be like any of the Dirty Dancing films.

DIEGO LUNA love of my life..

go fill your closet with things you like to touch.

Edit Note : Sorry for all of the mistakes it was slightly rushed.

Knits, Russians and Furs.

Alright, i need to get something of my chest... i love culture . I think its so important and i think we all need to know where we're coming from to know where were going . Ya i get sometimes we don't like the places we're coming from or going, but you should its part of who you are,

regardless.

& well one of my most-guiltiest pleasures is when people dress in traditional clothing in a non-traditional way. I think it's creative,modern ,outspoken and shows they have pride in who they are. & so when i came across Russian Harper's Bazaar Oct 2009 i melted.

Dear Russian Harper's Bazaar your october 2009 editorial spread featuring Furs and over the knee lace-up boots.... brilliant. Congrats. (sorry I'm a few months late )

What i love even more is that when i think of Russians I think of furs and embroidered harem pants with brown leather boots and traditional fur caps . and although it wasn't quite like the picture seen below cause well it's a woman and she's wearing less clothing then the men. You can clearly see where the inspiration is being pulled away from and that is why i loveeee it.

Traditional Russian Attire featuring a dance pose.

It's got to be one of my most favourite winter/fall trends . that and of course Mark Fast's gorgeous knits. i love knits . i love how they are practical when you wear them with cute long-johns and fur boots . and i love when you can throw a knit sweater over a tank top and just curl up in-front of the fire. and i love that whenever you wear them you feel like you should be in a log cabin overlooking the mountains. It's great how all this can just be thought up through the idea of knit sweaters mmmm.

Apologies for my spectacular ranting aha: back to: Mark Fast.

Ok well he is an up and coming designer/ not really cause we already know who he is and love his work so i personally think he's already made it, but hey that's just me , but it should be what everyone thinks haha.

Did you know Lady Gaga's stylist approached him to ask for some of his gorgeous knits, for well whatever purpose, and he declined. I love Lady Gaga and i think she's incredible, but nonetheless good for him. He even explained "My work is about a lifestyle. It's not fast food fashion. It's not about trends, it's about classic, it's about the body, the beauty. Maybe that gets lost in the picture with certain celebrities."

I can totally agree with that, however i also believe that fashion is about exploration ,trying new things and having fun. So i guess it's kinda' like "to each there own " .

DVF: A story that had to be told...

Ok so today as i was looking at the new DVF Pre-Spring 2010' Collection i obviously had to also look at the Spring 2010' Collection, cause well i had to but, fearing overwhelming you i decided not to post anything .
HOWEVER!

I was being a loner and surfing the internet about how casey johnson (rip ♥) passed away and an ad on to my right for House of harlow 1960 jewellery popped up. unable to help myself i opened the Ad!
The contents within were beautiful.

Neckalaces with beautiful abalone inly charms etc..

And then i bright idea popped into my head , and as i put 2 and 2 together the lightning bulb orbitting around my crown lit up.

Harlows new 2010' Collection would go So beautifully with DVF's Spring 2010 Collection.....

Ok .. how gorgeous...
& the colours are so understated and you can put lots of it on at a time and there is lots of gold which i love and not as muh silver ,which i also love but not as much as gold.

Weird right cause when i was younger which wasn't too long ago i hated gold i thought it was old womanish and tacky and well i flat out did not like it. But now i love it cause its elegant and rich looking and goes beautifully with just about anything.

Alright now that i got that out of my system you need to go check out the new DVF Spring collection 2010' and let me know what you think..

DVF : da very finest..

Alright so seeing as this is a fashion blog and i have posted approx. 0 fashion related blogs i believe this is long over due .

Well i will begin with DVF since i love her like the worms love the earth, aka they rely on it to no end.

If you do not know who this is SHAME on you. She's brilliant , and her name is Diane Von Furstenberg. She stands to celebrate women's strength and confidence . Her clothes are beautiful and sexy and reflect everything it is to be a woman. Here are a few looks from her pre-spring 2010 collection which are absolutely divine. And that had i been rich i would currently own.

Well as you can see .. the clothes are gorgeous.

It's like she takes the images out of other women's heads and draws them into clothes. She just knows what we want to wear and how it should fit.

She has an act for designing clothes so that they are versatile enough that we can wear them from day to night and back again. They are also casual enough that throwing over a cardigan and belt could create a look which would prepare us for the office and they are fancy enough that throwing on a pair of strappy Giuseppe Zanotti multi coloured stoned embellished sandals can take you from day to night. She does it without making anything look to skimpy or trashy its just generously feminine and strong, and, the bold prints and large accents help draw attention not only to the clothes , but also to the woman which is what the clothes are truly about.

Colourful, Modern and Feminine.

just found this and it gave me a good laugh especially when i realized i agreed. ahaha

2009 .... guess what its over and it has been since the little hand struck midnight.

so its time to stop dwelling in last year and kick this year into high gear. (that rhymed and now im thinking i'm going to have to place a copy-write on it or else it'll end up just like elaine's muffin tops.. )

it all starts somewhere..

So it occurred to me today while sitting in a yellow room, lit by the snow outside that i'm lazy. I want to achieve my dreams and yet I sit there and expect things to be handed to me ...

well this is no longer the case.

I'm taking life head on and this blog is the first step, how am I supposed to be heard if i never throw my words into the universe?

well let me tell you ,whoever you may be, that i applied for university today.

it wasn't quite the terrifying experience i thought it would be , but now i feel like the admissions department expects something brilliant of me.

thankfully i have someone i look up to, Nima.

she's brilliant and extremely colourful.

guaranteed you won't find one like mine.

but assuming you do hold on to them cause they are impossibly difficult to find.

sounds weird but as soon as have a little conference with Nima in the brightly lit yellow room i feel inspired. i feel as if i could think up a whole collection or well do anything i need to and should do. it almost puts me in a daze because i'm amazed at how much i can accomplish.

okay okay i know it sounds weird but listen.

i saw Nima today for lets say almost 1 hour and 44 minutes ok.

i left got home applied for university and started a blog. doesn't sound like a lot but it is.

i mean do you know how many blogs there are with the name fashion in them, well theres alot i almost quit , but thankfully for the magical energy that the brightly lit yellow room provides me i didn't i kept going and now i am fully content with the results. A BLOG OF MY OWN !

cool huh ..

i write my own ideas when i feel like it and those who are out there read it , well at least maybe they do.... i hope they do.
